Under such configuration my keyboards outputs are working well in X-environment, but every key is also duplicated to virtual terminal going below it. When i switch computer off i see several lines that i recently typed into various windows on the terminal. What's worse, the terminal I am writing to, seems to be the one running startkde command, because every press of Ctrl+C - standard 'copy' combination for many programs kills my session and drops back to login screen. Copying above configs interrupted writing this text twice already ;)... Additionaly it seems that I am unable to switch to virtual terminals - Ctrl+Alt+[1..6] does nothing.
Has anybody an idea how to make X one-and-only owner of keyboard output?
EDIT:
In case anybody wonders about Xglxmount in my xorg.conf - it's small program I wrote myself to make sure that nvidia and mesa OpenGL drivers got loaded for apropriate cards.
EDIT2:
I figured it out - it required Option "GrabDevice" "on" for both keyboards - now it works well. The only problem is not inabilit to use textmode terminals, but If i really ned on, I can still ssh to my machine from another computer...
